Encounter Group#16 New American Indians
 

Name: New American Indians
Geographical Location: 6,8,10-14
H&M Average:12
H&M Range 8-18
Number found : 1-100
Tech Level: D-F
Power / Resources : Steam power if any / hunters, farmers, some mines.
Weapons: Edged and light firearms, explosives, gases, poisons.

Special Attributes: After the war these people found it easy to revert to their old ways on their reservations. Their population grew rapidly through their tolerance of wanderers. Well organized and peaceful people who will fiercely defend what is theirs.

This encounter is far to one dimensional. There are huge differences between tribes, each unique and rich. This so begs a real and lengthy supplement (long promised) that is grounded in real anthropology research and fact.

I think the the glimpse we got in "American Outback" is a good indicator of where the Amerind Empire could go. I thought the description of the Native Americans in this module were realistic and very playable.
